1. Major unlock of CRISPR potential empowered by metagenomics #NewMetaCRISPR. I’ve been hoping to see this happen for years: a way to edit the genomes of microorganisms within communities

Highly recommended

Happy to collaborate with two of our undergrads from Konya Gıda ve Tarım Üniversitesi; Sevcan and Mevlüt

I'm happy to start working as a postdoc with Tobias Marschall at Heinrich-Heine-Universität Düsseldorf HHU_Medizin Uniklinik Düsseldorf. We will be working on developing algorithms for genomic variations, pangenomes, etc.

New paper by Bilkent CompGen alumnus Arda Söylev, in collaboration with Seda Çokoğlu Dilek Koptekin Can Alkan and Mehmet Somel available online PLOS Comp Biol: "CONGA: Copy number variation genotyping in ancient genomes and low-coverage sequencing data" journals.plos.org/ploscompbiol/a…

I'm happy that this is finally completed and published. Thanks to Mehmet Somel, Can Alkan, Dilek Koptekin and Seda Cokoglu who made it possible. CompEvo & HumanG Labs Bilkent CompGen @ploscompbiol: journals.plos.org/ploscompbiol/a… #ploscompbiolauthor

From Human Genome Structural Variation Consortium (HGSVC) meeting in Glasgow, Scotland

Preprint of our latest work is out. With SVarp, we aim to discover haplotype-resolved structural variants on top of a #pangenome reference using #LongReads Many thanks to Tobias Marschall Jan Korbel @tobias_757 Jana Ebler SamarendraPani

Very happy to be a part of this great work. Thanks to all the contributors.
